OK, I get Guardians, more focused on lightsaber usage rather than Force. I also get Consulars, more focused on using Force to kill opponents. So my question is, where do Sentinels stand in all of this?

Sentinels are like a middle man (or woman, sorry). They focus on both the Force, and lightsaber combat.

OK, that clears things up a lot, thanks.

No problem.

They get more skills - that's their main strength and the reason I almost always start Kotor 2 with a Sentinel. More dialogue options. :lol:

So do I :lol: More practical...

And when you pick a prestige class. I think that the Consular is best mixed with a Weapons Master / Sith Marauder. Then you have a perfect combination of both lightsaber combat and force powers.

 

Other good combinations: Guardian - Assasin / Watchman. Sentinel - Weaponsmaster / Marauder. Sentinel - Jedi Master / Sith Lord.

 

In my next game maybe i'll do Guardian / Jedi Master. Anyone got any experience with this build?

Sentinals I like, they're the jack of all trades Jedi. They are decent with lightsabers, feats and they get more skills than guardian.

Sentinels are undeniable the best Jedi type of KOTOR2...

 

They get about the same amount of feats as Guardians, so no loss

 

Most skill points of all classes (major plus in kotor2)

 

Even guardians get enough FP and powers to spam massive Force Attacks, Sentinels get even more FP...

Wow, I always thought of Sentinels as lower in everything compared to Guardians and Consulars, now I know how good they are, thanks everyone! :-

No problem.

Works quite nicely. You'll get a good number of feats initially, and after you switch, your Force powers will catch up. The only "weakness" is the lack of skill points, but if your INT is decent, this should compensate.

 

Just about any combination will work out well in this game; it's simply a matter of how you play the character (e.g. don't try to spam Force Lightning as a low-WIS, low-CHR light side guardian / weaponsmaster).

I don't really worry about skill points. With NPCs like Bao and T3, I just let them upgrade all my weapons, armor, and whatever.

I didn't bother taking a prestige class last time I played, until I got to about level 31. (Seems there are better stats for the non-prestige classes ...)

How so?

A lot of feats dissapear from selection when getting a prestige class

 

(All Skill Feats, The +x to all saves, Health Regen etc.)

I like Sentinels because of what people have already said. I tried guardian once, they get a decent amount of feats but their skill level sucks.

I find it boring to play as a Guardian...you just get 'to' powerful, and the game gets boring.

Guardians are strong initially. My Sentinel was able to kill Traya and her band of dancing scimitars in about three rounds, total (which ended up being about one round faster than the Guardian :)").

Hm, my Guardian did it in 3.

Without entering a pissing contest with you, I remember my PC had over 1000 Force Points, which

My cousins found probably the best way to defeat her. You just throw those sticky gernades when your next to her and she can't use her force powers. Then you just hack at her.

How cheesy. I'll have to try it. :)

It actually works pretty well.
